4 FULL 50Lb Co2 cylinders

[Joker11]

I just had them filled. They are in hydro obviously. I have receipts. Not stolen.

Would like to sell to finance a vacation trip to DisneyLand with the kids at church in the choir. They work really hard 3 days a week for free at our church.

Or, I can trade for something of equal or greater value! I have been watching barter king. lol

Airgas, Praxair and WestAir has them for about 325 bucks.

If I can get 175 each I would be happy.

Please help me give a gift to these kids.

The cylinders are steel. Standard welding type cylinders.
I don't think you can ship full cylinders via UPS or Fedex or USPS. I will call a courier and see what's what. thanks.

ok, shipping cylinders that have compressed gas in them requires a few things. All of which make it impractical to ship.
1. The shipper must be DOT certified to ship certain materials as per CFR 49.
2. The shipper must have a hazardous materials account with UPS.
3. The shipper has to take a DOT class every 3 years to ship stuff. the class is about 250 bucks.
4. Every time you ship something you pay an extra fee for it on top of the cost of normal shipping.
5. You either REALLY want to ship something or you have more money than sense.

So. I can ship them empty or else the cost is going to be stupid.
Or you can just say nevermind. I would understand.

Hey Joker a crazzeee idea... could you get Airgas or someone else to take them and give you a credit at any store? Then the buyer could go to a Airgas store near him and turn in the credit for a full bottle?

jus' noodlin'

I have more cents than money myself.

Fills are cheap for CO2, which is the beauty of CO2.

[Joker11]

I think the weight of them would make shipping impractical.

Co2 is cheaper than argon and helium, but at 36 bucks a fill, I don't think it's cheap. maybe I am cheap!


Papa, that's not a bad idea. I can ask!
